CHRONOTYPE-DEPENDENT CARDIOVASCULAR RESPONSES TO AEROBIC EXERCISE
Research assistant position will involve data collection in The Exercise Physiology Laboratory located in Wade Hall. Study measures will include heart rate, blood pressure, baroreflex sensitivity, vascular imaging (ultrasound), blood lipids, ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, and circadian rhythm monitoring. Research assistant will also be responsible for helping with the preparation and cleaning protocols before, during, and after each study visit. Research assistants in any major will be considered, however those interested in pursuing a career or post-graduate studies in a health-related field will likely get the most out of this experience. Prior laboratory experience is desirable but not required. Students will be encouraged to deve...

Hayley MacDonaldNeuroscience of communication and language
Join a fast-paced, research-active neuroscience lab investigating how the human brain supports communication during language learning. Using cutting-edge EEG hyperscanning, we study brain activity while participants (including kids) have structured conversations. This work bridges neuroscience, linguistics, and clinical research—and produces results that have taken past students to publications, conference presentations, and competitive fellowships. You will be directly involved in human neuroscience data collection, working with children and trained speech-language pathology researchers. You’ll learn: - Good Laboratory Practices for neuroscience research - Ethics and safety in working with human participants - EEG setup, calibratio...
